THE .TIPPERARY„ SONG
Melody Made Famous by the War
Was Refused by _Several Pz'bltahere
The British troops arrived in Franco
eiftging "It's a Long, Long Way to
Tipperary," :they singit in the tren-
cher, it le hoard in the h;tspitele
and wounded Bailers rs
sing }t os
they

a h e when zav lldea s or v ezi i a
.s P
The history of this now famous on
was related by Mr. Bert )'eldmau, o
Messrs. 13, Feldman and Co., the putt
Ushers.
,
n
'
e 1
"It was early in September, 1,! .,
he said, "that Jack Judge, tiic author
of the song, sought his first interview
with me: Mr, Judge, who is a vaude-
ville singer of .much excellence as
welt as an author et songs, recounted
n success
o mo
t in glowing the gl g tern s h
he was everywhere making with 'Tip
perary;' but quite frankly informed
me that he had unsuccessfully tried
in several quarters to publish its be-
fore coming to me. One publishing
house, he said, returned his son
with the opinion that it was worthless .r
"Appreciating his candor, I asked
hint to sing the song to me. It in•
stantly impressed nee as full of pos-
sibilities. I suggested a few alter-
ations in the construction of the re-
frain, which, he agreed, greatly im-
proved, its swing. Thereupon ;I set
to worit ,with the publication of the
song, Much to my surprise, I was
not tremendously encouragedby the
artlats to whom I originally submit-
ted the song for exploitatiun, but this
did, not shake, my belief in its ulti-
mate success.
• "I •ultimately induced Miss Florrie
Fordo to produce 'Tipperary' at the
Isle of Man. This, to my mind, was
the `psychological moment' in its
career, for its success was electrical,
and the thousands of visitors took it
and made it it their own. From this
eventful night of July 21, 1913, the
popularity of the song has grown until
`Tipperary' is to -day .in world-wide
demand.
"Our average sales alone are 10,000
copies daily and the sales, from pre-
sent signs, must approximate two
million copies."

Tough Luck to Stand Fire Without
Returning -it
All the heroism that has been des-
played by British troops in the pre -
pent war . will never be known. A
few individual cases may chance to
be heard of. Others will be known
only to the "Recording Angel. Two
instances of extraordinary bravery on
tlio part of officers were mentioned
by a couple of wounded soldiers in
the London Hospital in the course
of the narrative of their own adven-
tures.
One of them, a splendid fellow, of
the Royal West Kent Regiment, said:
"Wo were in a scrubby position two
days. After four hours of action each
of our six big guns was put out of
action. Either the gunners were kil-
led or wounded, or the guns them-
selves damaged. For the rest of the
time we had to stick the German fire
without being able to retaliate. It
was bad enough to stand this inces-
sant banging away, but it made it
worse not to be able to reply.
"What happened to us h appened
to the Gloucesters. Their guns; too,
Were put out of action, and, like us,
they had to stand the ehell fire for
,hours and hours before they were
told to retire.' What we would have
done without our second in command.
1 don't know.
'During the Sunday firing he got bit
in the head. He had two wounds
through the cap in the front and one
or two behind, and lost a lot of blood.
Two of our fellows helped to bind
up his head, and offered to carry him
back, but he said: 'It isn't so bad.
I'll be. all right soon.' Despite his
wounds and loss of blood, he carried
on until we 'retired on Monday. Then,
I think, they took him off to hospital."

Widely Used in Europe as Draught
Animals—Splendid Workers
Tourists who have visited gallant
little Belgium—or Holland or Ger-
many, for that matter—during-. the
piping times of peace have remarked
on the dogs used for drawing little
carts. Sometimes visitors' sympa-
thies have gone out to them, but as
a general rule they are well treated,
and do not mind their work.
They draw milk carts, parcel de-
livery vans, and such light vehicles,
and in war they drag machine guns.
Curious as .this may seem to us, it
is not so very long ago that dogs
were used for draught purposes in
England,
Miss Gertrude Jekyll has told us
some of the uses to which dogs were
put in Surrey. Small carriers' carts
were drawn by dogs, and she remem-
bers one that used to ply regularly
between Guildford and Bramley.
Fish was also carried in similar
carts—a team of four finding three or
four hundredweight and a driver not
too much. These dog -teams travelled
very quickly, and they gained on the
coaches, as the latter had to stop to
change 'horses, whereas' the former
made it unnecessary.
